Applications are now being accepted for the 2020 Young Professionals Programme.

The 2020 Young Professionals Programme is now open for applications.
IWTO's Young Professionals Programme has been growing from strength to strength since its inception in 2012. More than 120 young members have subsequently found their feet in professionals across the wool industry. The exposure to global contacts, networking with senior executives and connecting with other young industry members rate as top priorities in our past participant’s wish-list.
If you're a young wool professional age 35 or younger, don't miss this opportunity: apply to be one of IWTO's 2020 Young Professionals today.
